Reports that she has been reading and re-reading Henry Sidgwick: A Memoir, and claims that it deepens and extends his influence, and is the best assurance that those who knew him can have 'of his continued presence and unfailing sympathy.'

Refers to his own experience of this arrangement and to the benefits that he derived from it. Mentions the names of several men from whom he received tuition, including Mr [Beatson] at Pembroke, HS, Mr Levine, Mr Percy Gardner, Mr Jackson and Mr Marchall. Claims that he owed her first class to HS' lectures and the papers that he did for him. Refers to his Methods of Ethics, and also to his lectures on metaphysics, Whewell, Hamilton, Bentham, Mill and Kant, and relates how he convinced him on the question of Utilitarianism. Refers also to HS' stammer, without which, he claims' 'note-taking would have been impossible.'
